4.7. Voltage Thresholds

The design tests the voltage measurements received from the secure device manager (SDM) against the thresholds (hex digital value)
Table 6.  Derivation of Voltage Rail ThresholdsThe design divides some of the voltages rails by a factor of two before the on-board ADC samples them. The SDM multiplies up those samples by two again. The ADC measures to ±3.5% accuracy. The final digital output from the SDM mailbox is represented as an unsigned fixed point number with 16 bits below the binary point (e.g. 0x0000C000 = 0.75 V, 0x00010000 = 1.0 V).
